How To Remove A Pedestal Drawer On An LG Washing Machine

Tip

Do not over-tighten the securing screws when reinstalling the drawer.

You must remove the drawer from the LG washing machine pedestal when items get stuck behind the drawer. This happens when you put too much in the drawer. Unlike most pedestals, the LG pedestal does not have latches to disconnect the drawer from the drawer slides. Removing a pedestal drawer on an LG washing machine requires disassembling it from the rail.

Step 1

Open the LG washing machine pedestal drawer and empty all contents.

Step 2

Pull the drawer until it is fully extended. Look for two screws on each side of the drawer that line up with the slots on the drawer sliding rails.

Step 3

Remove the screws on each side of the drawer with a Phillips-head screwdriver. Grab the sides of the drawer front panel, and pull the drawer away from the slide and the pedestal.
